INTRODUCTION

Data from Census 2000 are presented in three printed report series:

1. PHC-1, Summary Population and Housing Characteristics

2. PHC-2, Summary Social, Economic, and Housing Characteristics

3. PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts

The data from Census 2000 were derived from a limited number of basic questions asked of the

entire population and about every housing unit (referred to as the 100-percent questions, found

on the ‘‘short form’’), and from additional questions asked of a sample of the population and

housing units (referred to as the sample questions, found on the ‘‘long form’’).

The PHC-1, Summary Population and Housing Characteristics, report series provides data based

on the 100-percent questions. The subjects are age, Hispanic or Latino origin, household relationship, race, sex, tenure (owner- or renter-occupied), and vacancy characteristics. Land area measurements and population density also are provided. This series is similar to the 1990 census

CPH-1 series.

The PHC-2, Summary Social, Economic, and Housing Characteristics, report series provides

sample data based on both the 100-percent and the sample questions. Sample subjects include

place of birth; residence in 1995; language; educational attainment and school enrollment; veteran status; disability status; employment status; journey to work; work status, earnings, income,

and poverty status in 1999; physical housing characteristics; units in structure; fuel and equipment characteristics; owner and renter household characteristics, such as year owner moved into

unit; home value; contract and gross rent; and mortgage and rental cost characteristics. This

series is similar to the 1990 census CPH-5 series.

The PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series provides Census 2000 and historical comparisons of the 100-percent population and housing unit counts. It provides land and

water area measurements, and population density. The user notes section documents geographic

changes over the past decade. This series is similar to the 1990 census CPH-2 series.

In each series, there is one report for each state, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, plus a

United States summary report. Many tables in the United States summary reports include data for

Puerto Rico.

HOW TO FIND

GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

AND SUBJECT MATTER

DATA

This report includes a table

finding guide to assist the

user in locating those statistical tables that contain

the desired data. The table

finding guide lists alphabetically, by geographic

area, the subjects shown in

this report. To determine

which tables in this report

show data for a particular

topic, find the subject in

the lefthand column of the

table finding guide and

then look across the columns using the headings

at the top for the desired

type of geographic area.

Figure I–1 is an example of

a table finding guide.

The table finding guide

does not include crossclassifications of subjectmatter items. Additional

information to locate data

within specific reports is

provided in the headnote

at the top of the table finding guide and in the footnotes at the bottom of the

guide.

HOW TO USE THE

STATISTICAL TABLES

Parts of a Statistical Table

The census data included in printed reports are arranged in tables. Each table includes four major

parts: (1) heading, (2) boxhead, (3) stub, and (4) data field. A typical census report table is illustrated in Figure I–2.

The heading consists of the table number, title, and headnote. The table number indicates the

position of the table within the report, while the title is a brief statement indicating the subjects

and time reference of the data presented in the table. The headnote is enclosed in brackets and is

located under the title. It contains statements that qualify, explain, or provide information pertaining to the entire table.

The boxhead is under the heading. This portion of the table, which contains the individual column

heads or captions, describes the data in each vertical column. In the boxhead of many tables, a

spanner appears across and above two or more column heads or across two or more lower spanners. The purpose of a spanner is to classify or qualify items below it or separate the table into

identifiable blocks in terms of major aspects of the data.

County subdivisions within the state are shown alphabetically with places for the following 12 states: Connecticut,

Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin.

Figure I–1.

I–2 How to Use This Census Report

U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2000
The stub is located at

the left edge of the

table. It includes a listing of line or row captions or descriptions.

At the top of the stub is

the stubhead. The stubhead is considered to

be an extension of the

table title and usually

shows generic geographic area designations and restrictions.

In the stub, several features are used to help

the user better understand the contents of

the table. Usually, a

block of data lines is

preceded by a sidehead. The sidehead,

similar to a spanner,

describes and classifies

the stub entries following it. The use of indentation in a stub indicates the relationship

of one data line to

another. Indented data

lines represent subcategories that, in most

instances, sum to a

total. Occasionally

in tables, it is desirable to show one or more single-line subcategories that do not sum to the

total.

The data field is that part of the statistical table that contains the data. It extends from the bottom

of the boxhead to the bottom of the table and from the right of the stub to the right edge of the

page.

Both geographic and subject-matter terms appear in tables. It is important to read the definitions

of the terms used in the tables because census terms often are defined in special ways that reflect

the manner in which the questions were asked and the data were tabulated. Definitions of geographic terms are provided in PHC-3-A, Population and Housing Unit Counts, Selected Appendixes,

Appendix A. Census tables often include derived measures such as medians, means, percentages,

and ratios. These and other subject-matter terms are defined in Appendix B of the same report.

Symbols and Geographic Abbreviations

The following symbols are used in the tables and explanations of subjects covered in Census

2000 reports:

• A dash ‘‘-’’ represents zero or a derived measure that rounds to less than 0.1.

• (X) means not applicable. In the 1990 and earlier decennial census reports, three dots ‘‘...’’

meant not applicable.

• (NA) means not available.

Figure I–2.

How to Use This Census Report I–3

U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2000
• The superscript prefix ‘‘r’’ indicates that the count has been revised since the publication of the

1990 census reports, or that the area was erroneously omitted or not shown in the correct geographic relationship in the 1990 census reports. This symbol appears only in the Census 2000

PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series.

• A dagger ‘‘†’’ next to the name of a geographic area indicates that there has been a geographic

change (for example, an annexation or detachment, a new incorporation, or a name change)

since the information was published for the 1990 census for that area. This symbol appears

only in the Census 2000 PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series. The geographic change information for the entities in a state is shown in the ‘‘User Notes’’ section of the

Census 2000 PHC-3 report for that state.

• A plus sign ‘‘+’’ is appended to the lower bound of the highest interval when the median falls in

the upper interval of an open-ended distribution. A minus sign ‘‘-’’ is appended to the upper

bound of the lowest interval when the median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended

distribution. For more information on medians, see the section on ‘‘Derived Measures’’ in

Appendix B.

• A minus sign ‘‘-’’ preceding a figure denotes decrease. The minus sign appears only in the

Census 2000 PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series.

• (U) means the place or place part is composed entirely of urban land area. The (U) appears only

in the Census 2000 PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series.

• (R) means the place or place part is composed entirely of rural land area. The (R) appears only in

the Census 2000 PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report series.

• (U/R) means the place or place part is composed of both urban land area and rural land area.

The (U/R) appears only in the Census 2000 PHC-3, Population and Housing Unit Counts, report

series.

The following geographic abbreviations and terms may be used in the tables in this report:

• A ‘‘(part)’’ next to the name of a geographic area in a hierarchical presentation indicates that the

geographic entity is located only partially in the superior geographic entity. For example, a

‘‘(part)’’ next to a place name in a county subdivision-place hierarchy indicates that the place is

located in more than one county subdivision. (Places also may be ‘‘split’’ by county, congressional district, urban/rural, metropolitan area, voting district, and other geographic boundaries,

depending on the presentation.) Other geographic entities also can be ‘‘split’’ by a higher level

entity. The exception is a tabulation block, which is unique within all geographic entities in

census products.

• ANVSA is Alaska Native village statistical area.

• ANRC is Alaska Native Regional Corporation.

• CCD is census county division.

• CDP is census designated place.

• CMSA is consolidated metropolitan statistical area.

• MA is metropolitan area.

• MSA is metropolitan statistical area.

• OTSA is Oklahoma tribal statistical area.

• PMSA is primary metropolitan statistical area.

• SDAISA is state designated American Indian statistical area.

• TDSA is tribal designated statistical area.

• UT is unorganized territory.

GENERAL NOTES

User Note 1 The user should be aware that there are limitations to many of these data. Please

refer to the text provided with this report for further explanation of the limitations of the data.

The population and other data shown for Census 2000 in this report is as of April 1, 2000; the

boundaries used for all geographic entities are as of January 1, 2000. All boundaries are intended

for Census Bureau statistical data collection and presentation only; their depiction and designation

for statistical purposes do not constitute a determination of jurisdictional authority or entitlement.

Corrections to the Census 2000 data as a result of certified Count Question Review changes are

available from the Census Bureau’s Internet site at:

www.census.gov/prod/cen2000/notes/errata.pdf.

User Note 2

Data comparability for county subdivisions is shown only when the county subdivision contains

substantially the same territory as reported for the 1990 census (generally defined as at least

80 percent of the previous territory) unless the county subdivision is also a place. There is no

comparability provided for county subdivisions that have been extensively revised. Revised entities are noted by and within county. Changes to a geographic entity can be the result of legal

change actions, statistical redefinition, correction of previous boundary or drafting errors, or new

erroneous information.

Incorporated place and census designated place (CDP) comparability is provided for all places that

retained their name or general area without regard to the amount of territorial change between

censuses. Place comparability is not shown if the entity is new for Census 2000 (including

changes from a CDP to a legally incorporated place and vice versa) or is the result of a merger that

created an entirely new entity, or if a Census 2000 CDP contains less than 50 percent of the territory of a 1990 census CDP.

HISTORICAL NOTES

The area of New Hampshire was part of the original territory of the United States. It was originally

included in the Charter of New England in 1620, but a separate grant established New Hampshire

in 1629. In 1641, the area reunited with Massachusetts, and separated and reunited several times

until it finally became a separate provincial government in 1741. New Hampshire ratified the U.S.

Constitution on June 21, 1788; it was the ninth of the original 13 states to join the Union. The

state’s boundary with Canada was not formally established until the Webster-Ashburton Treaty of

1842, when New Hampshire assumed generally the same boundary as the present state.

Census data for New Hampshire are available beginning with the 1790 census.

User Notes III–1

U.S. Census Bureau, Census 2000
GEOGRAPHIC NOTES

New Hampshire is divided into 10 counties. The 259 county subdivisions in the state include 222

towns, which are functioning governmental units, and 13 incorporated places, which are independent of any county subdivision and therefore are treated by the Census Bureau as equivalent to

county subdivisions. There also are 24 nonfunctioning legal entities, legally described as grants

(8), locations (4), purchases (6), and townships (6). The Census Bureau identifies one area in the

territorial sea that is not within a county subdivision; this area is not assigned to any county subdivision and is not counted in the number of county subdivisions.

There are 13 incorporated places and 47 CDPs in New Hampshire. Incorporated places in the state

are legally described as cities, and all are independent of any county subdivision. The Census

Bureau treats all CDPs as dependent within county subdivisions.

GEOGRAPHIC CHANGE NOTES

The Geographic Change Notes listed below document high-level geographic entities—counties,

county subdivisions, and places—that are different from the information reported in the 1990 census. The notes identify geographic entities whose name and/or boundary have changed, entities

that no longer exist, newly established entities (both legal and statistical), and changes in geographic relationships, such as places that exist in one county and have expanded into or withdrawn from another county (the notes do not identify the other county(ies) in which the entity

exists; this can be determined from the Table listing all places in this publication) and places that

have become independent of or dependent within one or more county subdivisions. The changes

are reported by and within county. A few of the reported changes in name, legal status, or legal

relationship may be incorrect; if so, the correct version is shown in any Correction Notes section

above. Some changes are the result of legal actions that took place prior to the 1990 census, but

were not reported in that census.

The change notes for previous censuses reported only changes that occurred primarily as the

result of specific legal actions, as well as identifiable revisions to statistical entities (primarily

county subdivisions). For Census 2000, the notes reflect any boundary change that affects a geographic entity, regardless of whether it is the result of legal action, redefinition of a statistical

entity, correction of a previous boundary-reporting or -drafting error, or new erroneous information. For example, the county-level text ‘‘all districts revised’’ may reflect a legal redistricting of all

county subdivisions in the county, a major or minor relocation of county subdivision boundaries

due to more accurate mapping or more accurate boundary information, or a combination of these

that, in one way or another, affect every county subdivision in a county. In states whose legal entities rarely undergo a legal boundary change, such as the New England states, most of the entities

reported to have exchanged, gained, or lost territory did so as the result of mapping changes, not

legal actions. The extent and location of the boundary changes affecting any particular entity can

be determined by comparing the TIGER/Line® Files, Cartographic Boundary Files, or a comparable

set of maps for the 1990 and 2000 censuses.

2000Con.

[For information concerning historical counts, see "User Notes." A place or place part is designated as (U) if it has entirely urban land area, as (R) if it has entirely rural land area, or as (U/R) if it has both

urban land area and rural land area. An entity shown as entirely urban (U) may have rural water area, which is not included in the total area shown. An entity with land area rounding to less than 0.01 in

square miles (shown as "–") has a small amount of land area in square meters (less than 12,949 square meters). Density computed using land area. For information on nonsampling error and definitions,

A fishhook joins contiguous and/or discontiguous

parts of the same geographic entity

1 A ’°’ following a place name indicates that the place is an independent place or independent city. An

 independent place is not part of any legal county subdivision and thus serves as the statistical equivalent

 of a legal county subdivision. An independent city is not part of any county or legal county subdivision and

 thus serves as both the statistical equivalent of a county and a legal county subdivision. The name for the

 county subdivision is always the same as that of the place and never shown separately on the map.

Note: All legal boundaries and names are as of January 1, 2000. Where international, state, county, and/or

county subdivision boundaries coincide, the map shows the boundary symbol for the highest level of these

geographic entities. The county boundary is always shown. Where a county subdivision boundary coincides with

a place boundary, the map does not show the place boundary symbol. Any geographic entity name may include

’(pt.)’ if some portion of the entity extends beyond the limits of the map area displayed on the page, or if

multiple discontiguous pieces of the entity have been discretely labeled on the page. A geographic entity

name may include ’(pts.)’ if many discontiguous pieces exist for that entity that cannot be discretely labeled.

The boundaries shown on this map are for Census Bureau statistical data collection and tabulation purposes only;

their depiction and designation for statistical purposes does not constitute a determination of jurisdictional
